Blue Jasmine





The 80-90% approval of Blue Jasmine by the cineastes is indicative of intellectual decline of American people in the Late Imperial Era. The movie is a senile work with trivial, Hallmark card ideas, such as that the wealthy are immoral and vapid, and "(conjugal) true love turns a shed into a palace", which wastes the talents of great actors and comedians such as Kate Blanchett, Sally Hawkins and Louis C. K. Monologues and dialogues are stale. They are too moralistic for comedy and too lightweight for philosophy. "Why Woody Allen needs to shoot a movie per year? Is he short on money?" Even if he is into it to meet girls, the women of Blue Jasmine (unlike that of his other late movies) are far older than his usual dating contingent.
